Over the course of our 16-year friendship, I've been in constant awe of Carrie. She's a brilliant artist and fellow musician, and she has a knack for problem-solving and tackling difficult tasks fearlessly. In the wake of a recent divorce, however, her coping mechanisms were severely tested. Realizing that she'd become isolated, Carrie reached out to a group of female friends for support and discovered hidden reserves of power she didn't realize she possessed. Although she's an atheist, she embarked on a spiritual journey that led to a thriving magickal practice. Since it's Spring, a time for new beginnings, I was excited to check in with one of my dearest friends to learn about her fresh start.
